A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum

Lately, in order to keep from buying new pants, I have had to pull out a belt that has been to tight for the past year or so. I've been wearing it on the first notch. It was a bit tight a couple of weeks ago, but yesterday it fit just right on the first notch. Today when I put it on, the first notch was a bit too loose, but the second notch felt similar to the way the first one did yesterday. I find that a bit weird.

Have you had any funny or weird things happen to you that have shown you what kind of progress you are making?

    my son was acting up and I bent down to discipline him. My glasses fell off my face. It was hard to be upset at him after that. My glasses no longer fit because of my weight loss. Yay!!

    I have a belt that I have punched 7 holes in that I keep wearing for motivation even though I should prolly get a smaller belt.

    I have found that none of my bracelets fit me anymore! Luckily I made them myself, so I can redo them, but it's annoying when I'm getting dressed & put my jewelry on & it's too big! I had to remove over an inch from my med alert bracelet too. That has not come off me in YEARS, and I just about lost it removing my coat one day! :-)

    my trousers are too big (like will fall off when i stand up), so i put on my belt today. i started on the 3rd notch when i bought it. and today i had it on the last one and my pants were still coming down! so i had to steal one of hubby's belts, and even tho it's on the 1st notch it's comfy.
    i look forward to this belt being mine, and noting each time i reduce a notch!

    I'm jealous about the jewelry. I'm looking forward to being able to wear my old rings and bracelets.

    I have a belt that I put my own hole in too!!! I also love the fact that I can pull my size 6's up and down without buttoning them!!

    I bought two pairs of jeggings early in a week over a two months ago knowing when I hit thursday which is weigh in day I'd weigh alot less I no way expected to go down a size but as soon as thursday hit the jeggings were instantly a size too big I had to sew them smaller each week till eventually I could sew no more they hang way too loose and baggy on me now at the moment for me to try get away with. I'm on my way to buy some new pairs today :laugh:

    I haven't been shopping since December but I went for the first time yesterday. I figured that I had probably gone from a large to a medium so that is mostly what I grabbed. I was shocked when I had to ask my mom to get me a SMALL from the rack because the medium was too big. My exact thought while looking in the mirror was "How in the hell did this happen?!"
